Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.2 s · 234 KiBAbout 234 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.2 s1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 1.2 s.
Mobile performance score: 81
81/100Your mobile performance score is 81. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
300 ms · 106 KiB2 images could be 106 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
Font display
200 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 200 ms).
1 long task on the main thread
1 long task block the main thread while loading, the longest for 50 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
47 KiBAbout 47 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Document request latency
3 KiBThe HTML itself could arrive sooner: redirects, a slow server response or missing compression delay everything after it.
2 checks passed
Main-thread work: 0.5 s
A phone's processor spends 0.5 s on main-thread work while loading, 95 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 1 ms
1 msYour server sent the HTML in 1 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors
Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.
Real-user LCP: 4.4 s
4.4 sReal visitors wait 4.4 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Real-user FCP: 3.3 s
3.3 sReal visitors see the first content after 3.3 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user TTFB: 1.9 s
1.9 sReal visitors wait 1.9 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Largest Contentful Paint: 4.7 s
4.7 sYour largest element takes 4.7 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.
38 images without width and height
38 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Speed Index: 4.1 s
4.1 sVisually, the page fills in at 4.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 4.7 s
4.7 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 4.7 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
-8%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-24, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 76 ms to 70 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

Total Blocking Time: 0 ms
0 msScripts block the page for only 0 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
2 images far larger than shown
309 KiB2 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example ecuador.svg at 1,440 px wide, shown at 50 px. Resized copies would save about 309 KiB.
2 images below the first screen load straight away
2 images further down the page (363 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 0.3 g of CO₂ per visit
0.35 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.35 g of CO₂e: 42.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Page weight: 1.2 MB in 47 requests
1.2 MBYour homepage downloads 1.2 MB in 47 requests on a phone: images 704 KiB (39), scripts 431 KiB (4) and fonts 67 KiB (2). That is a lean page.
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Accessibility
3 tap targets too small
3 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
1 checks passed
21 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 24 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 21 passed and 3 failed. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
No H1 headline
There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
Only 0 internal links
The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is set, so this is minor.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 112 characters
Your meta description is 112 characters: “Select your market and language to explore our models and the latest news in your preferred language and region.”.
Title: 40 characters
Your title is a healthy 40 characters: “Choose your country and language | smart”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://global.smart.com/.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://global.smart.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
No llms.txt
There is no https://global.smart.com/llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
1 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Best practices
17 small tap targets
17 of 17 tappable elements near the top of the page are smaller than 24 px, hard to hit with a thumb.
1 JavaScript error while loading
1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Unrecognized Content-Security-Policy directive 'prefetch-src'.”.
1 checks passed
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
No calls to action
We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
No analytics detected
No analytics or tag manager detected in the HTML, so you can't measure whether any of these fixes work.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
Only about 88 words
The homepage has only about 88 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
No risk reducer
No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.
Privacy and tracking
No consent tool detected
No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.
1 checks passed
No known trackers before consent
No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).
Security, domain, email and software versions
The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at smart.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
